I literally just asked this same question and the solution is less
than stellar.
Node inheritance is useful for variables and overriding. Classes are
useful for specifying system roles.
In more concrete terms this is what I do:
class roles::general {
include ntp
include ldap
}
class roles::ntpserver {
include ntp::master
}
node zone-global {
ntp_servers = ['']
}
node zone-nyc inherits zone-global {
$ntp_servers = ['10..1.1.10']
}
node client inherits zone-nyc {
include roles::general
}
node ntpmaster inherits zonenyc {
$ntp_servers = ['pool.ntp.org']
include roles::general
include roles::ntpmaster
}
This isn't nearly as clean as it could be if some of the variable and
scoping rules were different, but for now it has sufficed to clean up
my puppet config dramatically.
